During the autumn harvest, the adults are very busy, and even the children are arranged by their parents.

In the dense cornfield, the adults break the corn in front, and the boys and girls follow behind, carrying sacks in their hands, putting the corn picked by the adults into the sacks, filling them and tying them up, and waiting for the adults to move them to the rack carts on the field, and then transport them home one by one.

When the corn is finished, the corn stalks in the field must be cleared, and while the corn stalks are cut, they are tied into bundles and then transported to the field by cart and piled up. Most people take their corn stalks home and pile them up to use as firewood in the winter.

The corn transported home is piled up into a hill, and this is not the end, and the next step is to peel the corn, some of the corn leaves are peeled clean, and some of the corn will keep the corn leaves, and the adults will turn them into strings, hang them on wooden shelves or hang them on the wire specially for hanging corn under the eaves, and when the corn is full, the golden yellow is very shining from afar.

In this era, it is still necessary to hand over grain to the grain station, and pay 100 catties of grain per acre, so the corn that has been returned to the family is not all their own.

In Gu Sisi's memory, he was very tired when he harvested corn, and the corn leaves were very sharp, and he would be scratched if he was not careful.

When Gu Sisi was a child, he had to pull weeds in the corn fields in the summer, and during the autumn harvest, like other children, he would load corn behind the adults and push the cart behind the full rack cart.

When I got home, I thought I could watch TV and play, but I had to peel the corn, and even peel the corn that had been hanging for a while into grains. At that time, Gu Sisi didn't like to do this very much, he felt very tired, his neck hurt and his hands hurt. When he grew up, Gu Sisi realized the hard work of his parents, and he slowly stopped shouting and getting tired.

In the small courtyard of the ancient family, the old man took his two sons to repair the head of the frame car, and also checked whether the tires were exposed.

Chen Xinling took her daughter to check the sack to see if the bag was broken, and to make up the broken place, so that the bag was not enough when it was saved.

Gu Xinghao sat on the small bench obediently, and didn't go to make trouble for the adults, the villain held the bamboo dragonfly made for him by his grandfather in his hand, and looked at this side and then that side with big eyes.

Gu Xinghua and Gu Xing'an took a grinding stone to sharpen the sickle on the side, and the sickle was sharp, so it was good to cut the corn stalk. When Gu Guofu and Xue Guizhi took Sister Ping into the door, what they saw was a scene of harmony in the small courtyard.

The old man looked at his granddaughter who was snuggled in the arms of his little daughter-in-law, and said to his youngest son with a smile: "Why are you back today, are you going to stay for a few days? Sister Ping has grown taller, not bad." ”

Gu Guofu was about to speak back, but was interrupted by his wife, who was holding his daughter on the side. Xue Guizhi stuffed a piece of dim sum into her daughter's hand, and said to the old man with a smile: "Dad, isn't this the autumn harvest, Guizhi and I also have time, so we will come back to help the family, this Pingping also misses you and Haohao." ”

After Xue Guizhi finished speaking, she pulled her daughter's clothes without a trace, and motioned for her daughter to speak and say what she taught her before.

At this moment, Xue Guizhi had no choice but to laugh, she leaned into her daughter's ear, and said gently: "Pingping, call grandpa! Here are your uncle and second uncle, this is your second mother, this is the eldest brother, the second brother and sister Sisi, and the younger brother, don't you want to see your younger brother? Why are you so shy?"

Xue Guizhi was in a hurry, obviously this child behaved very well when he was at home, why didn't he speak as soon as he came back, didn't Guofu say that he was fine when he came back before? The smile on Xue Guizhi's face was almost unbearable, so he had to endure the irritability in his heart and squeeze out a smile and said to everyone: "This child, he still recognizes life, this character is too shy." ”

When Chen Xinling arrived at the hall, Sister Ping took a piece of red bean cake in her left hand, and also took a piece in her right hand and stuffed it into her mouth. This child only knows how to eat, and she ignores you when you talk to her, and I don't know how this younger brother and sister are taught children, which was not the case when I came back last time!

Although Chen Xinling was very dissatisfied with her younger sister Xue Guizhi in her heart, she still smiled on her face, "It's okay, this is also Sister Ping'er doesn't come back often, children, after a long time, you will be familiar with playing." Let her play with her brothers and sisters, you go and put your things away, rest for a while, and I'll cook later." ”

Everyone sat for a while, Chen Xinling went to the stove room to prepare, Gu Sisi followed behind his mother, Brother Hao was Gu Sisi's little tail, of course he followed. It stands to reason that Brother Hao hasn't seen his parents for a long time, and he should be sticking to his parents, where did he ever think that this little guy just opened his mouth and screamed, so he should still do something.

Gu Guofu didn't feel anything, as soon as he came back, he hugged his son and kissed him several times, although his son hid and didn't let him kiss, he was still very happy, because his son looked a lot fatter, but he was much tougher than his previous appearance.

The old man talked to his granddaughter for a while, sat for a while, and then went to the room to see the old woman. Gu Guoqiang continued to repair the car in the courtyard, and Gu Guoren just wanted to go with his eldest brother, but was pulled aside by his younger brother. Gu Guoren looked at his younger brother, and just wanted to ask him what he was going to do, Gu Guofu quietly asked, "Brother, how is our mother's health?"

"I also just came back, and my mother was still asleep when I went to see my mother. Listen to our father said it's not bad, but my mother's temper is getting bigger and bigger, you give your daughter-in-law instructions, everything is in line with your mother. Gu Guoren glanced at his parents' room and couldn't help but give his younger brother a wake-up call.

"Well, I know, when I came back, I told Xue Guizhi that if she loses her temper again, I will divorce her!" Gu Guofu nodded, he didn't understand in his heart, his wife was healed and forgot the pain!

"You do it, how old are the two children, you can leave if you say it! If you say this, I will treat you as a trick, don't think about it! Our mother is a knife mouth tofu heart, you see that my second sister-in-law and I haven't come over all these years, just bear with it." Gu Guoren was very helpless, his younger brother used to follow his daughter-in-law's words, but as soon as his mother happened, he changed his personality, and he didn't know if this change was good or bad.

"Hehe, brother, I'll just talk about it and really go for a divorce! Brother, you also know that Gui Zhi, I used to follow her, but what happened? I found out, if you are not powerful, she is not afraid of you at all, and she will not have a long memory! Our mother is blessed with a great life, and I don't care about him for the sake of the two children, but there is no next time!" Gu Guofu couldn't help but sigh after saying these words. In fact, now that he is in love with Xue Guizhi, he is no longer as in love with Xue Guizhi, and even he feels that the relationship between them is almost gone.

"You have a score in your heart, and I'll see my mother later. My mother said that she would be angry when she saw you, but from time to time she would ask you when you would come back. Gu Guoren nodded, he was afraid that his younger brother would be too assertive, but now he is not worried.

"I'll go now, I asked Guizhi and her cousin to buy some nutritional products for our mother and father, and I brought them to my mother, saying that it was good for my mother and father's health. Gu Guofu nodded again and again. Just kidding, if he follows Xue Guizhi again and makes another mistake, it is estimated that he will not forgive himself without his father's action.

Here, Mu Yingying's house. Zhou Xing sat cross-legged on the kang, threading needles and threads, and a quilt was placed on the kang, and the quilt next to it was dismantled and washed when the weather was good, and she had to sew it up quickly. When Mu Yingying walked in, her mother was just about to sew the quilt, she sat on the edge of the kang, touched the quilt and asked softly: "Mom, the corn will be harvested in two days, won't my father come back?"

When Zhou Xing heard her daughter's words, the needle in her hand accidentally pricked her finger, but she was stunned like no one, she looked at her daughter a little helpless, "Your dad is ...... Alas...... We don't have much land, two days ago Mom went to see, we can harvest a few days later, when Mom breaks corn in front, you and your brother in the back to load sacks, let's take the rack car back and slowly transport, we can always finish. ”

"Well, when the time comes, I will look at my little brother and not let him go to the river to play. Mu Yingying heard her mother's words, and she didn't ask why, she knew that her mother was the hardest in the family, so in addition to going to school and studying, she was looking for work the rest of the time, and she wanted her mother to be easier.

"Well, well, I have to study hard when I go to Sisijia in the second half of the day, do you know?" Zhou Xing looked at the sensible girl, and the boredom in her heart was also less. Yes, the husband is unreliable, and there are children, and life will gradually get better after all.

"Mom, don't worry, I know everything. Mu Yingying nodded, she understood and understood the meaning of her mother's words, and in the same way, she would cherish the opportunity given by Sisi. Although she really wanted to change the situation at home as soon as possible, she knew that it was unrealistic, so she didn't want to miss any opportunity to change.
